Whichever Team Play's TEAM ball will Win.
If Either the Lakers or The Rocket's play Kobe Ball/McGrady Ball Their Teams will Lose.

as a fan of neither team i cant wait to watch this game. this game i a good test for both teams especially for the lakers in terms of having to come out with some kid of intensity. I think the lakers will kind of have a chip on tere soulder in regards to they want to be the team to stop the rockets streak. i think it wil be a game with a lot of intensity, and what hasnt been mentioned in this thread yet its a game that good shape how the top of the west finishes so it quite important at the same time.

This will be a tough streak to end, but I think it will be done tonight. Gasol maybe out, but Yao is out too. No matter, once Gasol and Bynum are back, lets see who gets past the first round in the playoffs.

We are horrible , plain and simple ... this team is so soft , I'm disgusted .. Bynum was boxing out motherfuckers all day long .. without him, it's easier to get into the Lakers paint than into a hooker pussy .. we need a enforcer ala Rick Fox to send the opponent team some messages

Title: Re: Sunday Lakers vs Rockets
Post by: GangstaBoogy on March 16, 2008, 03:14:42 PM
Okay peep this...

McGrady hits a shot. Kobe comes right back down and hits a shot. Lakers down by 4 with about 6 minutes to go. All the power in the complex goes off (lil kids outside started fuckin with the breaker box). So we finally get the power back on. I get it back on channel 10 and I see Bobby Jackson's ugly ass hit a 3 to push the lead to 10 with 2 minutes to go.

What the fuck did we do wrong in those 4 minutes?!

the Rockets luck is bound to run out soon... but they did hit their shots today. There were also a few instances were Kobe drove to the basket, got heavy contact, and nothing was called. That was B.S. but in the end, we lost. Hope the team can rest and regroup.

Rockets were without Yao Ming and Steve Francis. Lakers were without Andrew Bynum, Pau Gasol, Trevor Ariza, and Chris Mihm. Its not even.

Lakers haters are delusional. Just like my homie keeps braggin cuz the Hornets beat us and said I'm using injuries as an excuse. Both times they beat us we were undermanned, the one time we were healthy we blew em out. I really wish our roster could finally stay healthy so these people can swallow their words once and for all.

Dogg!!!!! Ariza, Mihm and Bynum have been out for 2 months already. I'm postive that the team has worked around those injuries to the best of their ability. Yes, injuries do hurt a team when it takes away from their depth, but you guys have the best coach, the "mvp" of the season, the best third option and the best bench in the league STILL playing. So yes, Gasol was out and you lacked a strong center in this game. But so did the Rockets with old ass Mutumbo starting.

Injuries happen. They can't be used as an excuse. Game 6 1980, the Lakers weren't making excuses. Kareem was down and they put Magic in his place. They won. That's what great teams do. They work through injuries and find ways to win, no matter the circumstance. Get real and stop the whining for once.

I said it was gunna be a blowout before Gasol went down...and Gasol is obviously more important to us than Yao is to the Rockets. LOL@"Rockts>>>>>>>Lakers"...Just wait till we get our players back. No center. Gasol, Bynum, Mihm are ALL out. Ariza is also either the first guy off the bench or our starting 3...so yea, the Lakers at full strength are lightyears ahead of the Rockets...PeACe

imo this has nothing to do with the slump .. Fish , a VETERAN, took some weird decisions on Defense ... going constantly under screen or helpin on T-Mac (with Kobe on him) which let Altson WIDE open are BAD decisions .. it's not even about execution

Yea...Fish needs to recapture that fire in his eye that he had in the first half of the season. Dude always steps it up when it counts, though. I'm not trippin. The only thing I'm concerned about right now is our players getting back at full strength for the playoffs.

Lol its cute how everytime Kobe has a bad game the credit goes to someone elses defense. Just like earlier in the year Yahoo Sports had headlines saying "Lebron shuts Kobe down in win over the Lakers".

The only person that can shut Kobe down is Phil Jackson.

no doubt,i agree that the motivation should have been there. no excuses are bein made for the game,houston outplayed the lakers. i just think the rockets are on a serious high and when the streak finally ends,do you think they will get the same play out of the end of their bench? i dont but we will see.
